Expected april's fools?


langer

Recommended Posts

As some of you may have experienced, Jagex likes to toy with us this time of year. Everyone that played in 2007 remembers the dreaded cabbage month of april 2007 where the no-cooking pures had to raise their cooking to lvl 5 in order to equip the cabbage armor set!

 

What kind of april fools are you expecting this year? Free-trade reversal? Release of the Sailing skill? The sacking of MMG and the hiring of Donald Trump as CEO of Jagex?

 

Btw, here's the link to the 2007 april behind the scenes : http://forum.tip.it/topic/105075-1-april-2007-behind-the-scenes-april-1st/page__hl__cabage

if they reverse free trade/wildy for longer than 20 minutes they can kiss my 6$ good bye

i think it'd be funny to release a sailing skill.

good to know what they do in their spare time instead of fixing the game :P

Afterall in 04 we had Horses released (later renamed to toy horsey)

05 saw ragon Plates (spinning plates after rename)

07 was the cabbage bts

08 was Dragon Kite (toy kite now)

09 had the jumping talking cabbages and brassica prime

It was the easiest to dig up quick. I still think it was a nice one though. Dragon plates, kites and horses were a gentle slap in the face of the hopefuls! The wet and wildy teaser showed us that the playerbase is somewhat gullible!

Suppose the obvious one atm if they go for the play on wat ppl want thing would be some ritual of the mahjratt one.

 

Like make it front page news and layed out like a quest that u start at Reldo then its jsut a book called "ritual of the mahjratt" the explains what we already know basically about the ritual

I'd rater have them change it so that when you log into the lobby, it will say

"Sorry, your account has been deleted from out server database. Please re-create your account"

After three login attempts it says APRIL FOOLS and logs you in

It'd cause to much customer service overload to do tht because most people aren't gonna try 3 times when they r told its been deleted.

Plus aprils fools never inconvenience the player they just mislead or prove to be harmless fun.

Hah, fake sailing. I really liked the cabbage April fools.. Wasn't that the one where Draynor cabbage patch came alive? I kept some cabbages that you could throw at people for the longest time.. Wonder if I still have any. :P I'm thinking I got rid of them a while ago. :(

Dragon crossbow, and it turns out to be a bow tie with a dragon and a cross on it :twisted:

I, for one, would prefer to see the return of Brassica Prime -- my deity of choice. <3: <3:

 

If I was a betting woman, I'd wager that we're going to see something along the lines of a bad pun relating to some dragon item: say, a "draggin' hammer", which would be an equipped (red) hammer that drags along the ground ...

 

:rolleyes:

Haven't the past few months of updates been almost like one huge practical joke amongst themselves? Think about it, we get free trade/wildy back (that included a huge thing featuring all the people's usernames who voted yes), we get a smithing update we didn't actually need, and we get a pirate update that reminds us that they have yet to introduce the new quest. Any more foolishness and this'll just become annoying, mind you, I would love to see a metal dragon made entirely of cheese...

Sailing skill:

You get a toy boat, and take it to a pond. You release the boat into the pond, it floats a bit into the pond, and just sinks. A screen pops up that says "what a horrible idea for a skill". Your character shakes their head in disappointment and you go back to what you were doing.

So true! I do find it ironic how many are pro sailing yet adamant dg shuld be a mini-game not a skill.

It's like eh? u do realise sailing would have to be MORE mini-game like than dg, unless it was just literally watching a map of a boat move at increasing speeds.

I'd like it if for one April Fools' day, they release some big unbelieveable update, with the joke being that it's real, not a fake :D. Maybe a first-person graphics option or something.
